Website design portal SitePoint are offering 14 days free CSS training - via Twitter.

Here's the email they are sendng their user base:

Hello,


You've downloaded samples of our books in the past, so I thought
you'd be interested to hear that for 14 days you can download The
Art & Science Of CSS (worth $29.95) absolutely FREE.

All you need to do is follow @sitepointdotcom on Twitter. It's
a two week Twitaway, so don't miss out —- follow us today!

Don't do Twitter? That's cool, we've got you covered. Check
out our 14-day CSS Twitaway here:

http://www.twitaway.com

Freebies like this are few and far between, so help us spread the
word. Tell everyone you think might be interested in a FREE CSS
book about the SitePoint 14-day Twitaway!

Warm regards....


This is an interesting example of creating an event using Twitter, providing an alternative platform too (the site mentioned above) and using a traditional marketing event approach (delivered via non-traditional Twitter) to entice new customers and boost sales.
